Kanye West has admitted has been thrashed by Beyonce – at board game Connect Four.

The rapper-producer took on the singer after hearing of her prowess at the red and yellow disc game while touring.

“When I was in Europe I would play this game (Connect Four) for hours and hours… it helped me zone out,” he wrote on his official blog. “Every now and then people would speak of this legendary Connect Four champion… Beyonce!"

West decided he would take on Beyonce when he caught up with her and boyfriend Jay-Z at the latter’s new venture.

“I had to play her! So last night at Jay’s new 40/40 club in Las Vegas she beat me nine times in a row!” he revealed, although West claimed he did win one match.

And just in case anyone doubts Beyonce’s skill with Connect Four, West even posted this snap of him getting beaten by the former Destiny’s Child leader online.

Connect Four is not Beyonce’s only recent win.

More seriously the singer won a copyright dispute yesterday (January 2) with songwriter Jennifer Armour.

The Fifth Court Of Appeals accepted Beyonce's song ’Baby Doll’ was completed before the Armour submitted a track to the singer’s management.
